No offense mcdonamw...but if you look at the players playing hardcore v/s core, core has at least a 9-1 advantage in pure numbers.  I agree, 2 free maps that I will never play doesn't make me forget how bad the lag is in this game.  From the article I read, my opinion is that the development team at IW is very disgruntled at Activision, (I would be as well if I was owed about 100 million dollars).  However, that doesn't give them the right to not fix what is wrong with this game.  I am going to continue to play MW3 just because I'm trying to get to 15th prestige (just for my own amusment).  We have yet to hear from GHANDI lately, I'm wondering what is going on.....

No offense taken, but honestly, regardless of numbers, it should not be the developer's perogative to limit my ability to play new coolness.  I shouldn't have to be relegated to noob-mode just to enjoy new game types.  None of the other CODs did this.

Sure, the argument is, "but further fragmentation of the player community yields worse game play"... bollocks.  BLOPS had playlists that were PRESTIGE only and for specific prestige levels.  I don't recall hearing issues with those.

Hell, if anything, the manner of which they are trickling out of content is causing more fragmentation to our playerbase than anything else.  It's clear they cannot handle this kind of content distribution in their games.  This has proven to be nothing but a recipe for failure.  This is not a game that can handle this kind of frequent distribution pattern, yet they will continue to do so as it is going to be their way of making more money going forward.  Low cost game + frequent purchasable content.

The thing is, people have different internet connection, so everyone has a different experience with lag compensation, some suffer from constant host disadvantage, some others say the game runs great because these people are on the positive side of lag compensation.

From a mathematic point of view its like 2 differnt variables in MW3 (Your Connection and Lag Compensation) while in other CoD there is only one (Your Connection), if someone had a bad connection then you could see him laggin all over the place, in MW3 you can have a bad connection and still have a good gameplay because of the second variable (The Lag Compensation), the Lag in previous CoDs was predictable, you knew if someone lags, in MW3 it hidden (Ping Bar and Movement).

All i wanna say is, its cool if the game runs good for you or someone else, thats how it should be, but please don't judge other peoples experience with lag just because you don't suffer that much from it, everyone has a different connection so its the experience.

I remember when i've played with a friend who doesn't lives to far away from me, he complained about lag while i dropped people with 1-2 shoots, then the next match i got killed by 1 bullet and my bullets don't register correctly while he was in god mode, this game is so connection driven its insane, doing well in this game isn't a factor of your skill, its the factor on which side of lag compensation you are.

Ha! On a regular basis... I get a hitmarker with a tac knife... And then an assist. Hmmmm.

Is there a problem with the Internet in California? Perhaps the office has been moved to the Ivory Towers and there is no service there. Beachhead must be having the same problem.

It seems unlikely the business plan would include dropping news of a diminished DLC or bungling Elite for the millionth time, then siting back to gauge the response of the vocal players. All the while manipulating the community, ignoring it until becoming docile, concerned for further Developer involvement. Now being complacent, you allow players to turn on each other in order to dilute the issue until such time as its champion of empty promises deems it safe to return.

I'm appalled your companys would stonewall loyal fans that are pleading for help.

Regretfully, Troy

P.S. Both Twitter accounts are as informative as the billboards on the side of the road that read... "buy" "buy" "buy"

P,S,S. "Soon" is a term now lost on this community, try relating the same time frames Dev teams operate on.

Here is an odd one: before I started a match my K/D was 1.210. The match I went 21-21, afterthe match my K/D dropped to 1.209. How the hell is that possible? Just another WTF thing going on with this game....

21-21 is a 1.0 K/D ratio. This is lower than your current KDR so your KDR dropped. Nothing WTF about this, just mathematics working.
